Resource Application Logic

Overview

Plural’s deployment operator supports sync controls on any Kubernetes manifest you manage with Plural. You can:

• Specify the method used to sync resources
• Order resource application using sync waves
• Run lifecycle hooks at specific phases of a sync
• Automatically clean up hook resources with delete policies

This lets you do things like run database migrations before an app rollout, seed data after, and strictly order dependencies across services.

Sync options

You can specify how resources are applied during a sync with the deployment.plural.sh/sync-options annotation. We also support the Argo CD argocd.argoproj.io/sync-options annotation for compatibility.

Currently, only one option is supported:

• Force=True - If resource application fails, e.g., due to immutable field changes, the operator will delete and recreate the resource.

Options are comma-separated key-value case-insensitive pairs. All whitespace is ignored.
